Solving Linear Equations Expanding Brackets and Combining Like Terms
Math Colouring Activity Algebra Maths Wall.
Students will solve linear equations, including equations whose solutions require expanding brackets and combining like terms.
For example, solving 𝟐(𝒙 − 𝟑) = 𝟑𝒙 − 𝟏𝟔

✦ Notes:
There are 20 questions on solving linear equations.
Each answer occurs twice, once with a number and once with a colour.
The matching colour can then be used to colour the picture in a colour by number activity.
The resource is printed in black and white for the students to colour in.
All answers are included.
